Flexpoint Sensor Systems Receives Record Purchase Order Volume from Virtual
Reality/Augmented Reality Partners
Flexpoint Bend Sensor® becomes integral component of VR/AR glove peripherals

DRAPER, Utah, July 19, 2017
DRAPER, Utah, July 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc.
(FLXT) today announced Q1 and Q2 2017 resulted in receipt of record production
purchase order volumes in the rapidly growing Virtual Reality/Augmented
Reality (VR/AR) market segment. Flexpoint has received orders for more than
150,000 sensors and related assemblies from multiple development partners
around the globe. The company began to fulfill the orders in Q2 2017 and
complete fulfillment is expected before year end, which will be a large
contributor of the expected 500% revenue growth this year. Showing no sign of
abating, demand continues to grow and the company expects to receive
increasingly larger volume orders before year-end and continuing into 2018.
As previously announced, VR/AR hardware platforms produced by such notable
companies as HTC, Oculus, Sony and others offer rich and powerful
technologies. Major technological advances in hardware, software and
peripherals have enabled this market to expand and experience remarkable
growth. As projected, Flexpoint is now realizing significant revenue
contribution from numerous VR/AR peripheral technology development companies.
Last year, analyst Deloitte Global, correctly predicted virtual reality (VR)
would have its first billion dollar year. Additionally, a Goldman Sachs report
estimated the combined virtual reality and augmented reality market, (hardware
and software), will reach $95B in market size by 2025.
VR/AR is seeing tremendous adoption and growth in the B2B market sub-segment
as well as in consumer electronics/gaming. B2B users span a wide variety of
industries as they adopt VR/AR and adapt these technologies to varying use
cases. As reflected in this recent article by Mr. Cole Sandau, Managing
Partner at Optera Group, "2017 and 2018 mark the mainstream adoptions of AR/VR
and something that every B2B marketer needs to start paying attention to." Use
cases are many such as:
o Removal of the need for direct proximity – a customer no longer needs to
be directly in front of something to truly interact with it. Think about
equipment manufacturers selling a giant vehicle or a real estate agent
selling a second home halfway around the world. Today the customer must
"travel to the product" to see and experience it. AR/VR removes this
boundary – it lets customers experience things from the seat they are
sitting in today.
o Training - Learning cycles across so many industries (manufacturing,
military, medical, the list goes on and on) become more simplified and
massively compress in AR/VR.
o A major leap forward from "seeing" to "experiencing" – Companies allowing
their prospects/customers to experience products in a special way – not
just read about it.
According to Paul Sexauer, Flexpoint VP Sales & Marketing, "You will be hard
pressed to find an industry or market segment anywhere around the world that
does not embrace the value of VR/AR in one form or another. With our
differentiated Bend Sensor^® technology, industry experience and strong market
focus, we are very pleased to be so uniquely well positioned to grow with it.
Our development partners/customers are leading the way to market adoption of
these life changing technologies. It is very exciting to be a key part of
it!"
